Side Curtain Airbag Replacement: Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Honda Insight and 2010 Honda Insight. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
  • If you are replacing the side curtain airbag after deployment, refer to Component Replacement/Inspection After Deployment (see COMPONENT REPLACEMENT/INSPECTION AFTER DEPLOYMENT  ) for a complete list of other parts that must also be replaced.
  • Installation of the side curtain airbag must be done according to the Precautions and Procedures (see PRECAUTIONS AND PROCEDURES  ).
  • If the airbag is frayed, or has any other visible damage, replace it. Do not attempt to repair an airbag.
  • When you install the airbag, make sure it is not twisted, and that it is not caught between the inflator bracket by the bracket bolts.
  • Make sure that the side curtain airbag inflator retainer is installed properly. Otherwise the airbag could incorrectly deploy and cause damage or injuries.
  • If there is any damage to the side curtain airbag, do not try to repair it. Replace any damaged side curtain airbag.
  1. Place the side curtain airbag assembly on the side of the roof, and fit its clip (A) and hooks (B) into the holes in the body. Tighten the new side curtain airbag mounting bolts (C) and the mounting bolts (D) to the specified torque.

  3. Do the 12 volt battery terminal reconnection procedure (see 12 VOLT BATTERY TERMINAL DISCONNECTION AND RECONNECTION ).
  4. Connect the HDS, and clear the DTCs (see HOW TO CLEAR DTCS  ).
  5. After installing the side curtain airbag, confirm proper system operation: Turn the ignition switch to ON (II); the SRS indicator should come on for about 6 seconds and then go off.
  6. Install all remove parts in reverse order of removal. If any clips are stress-whitened, replace them with new ones.
  7. Confirm proper headliner/pillartrim overlap (see COMPONENT REPLACEMENT/INSPECTION AFTER DEPLOYMENT  ).
